The Call for Discussion went out a week or so ago and I neglected to send a copy to the moderators of sci.med.aids for posting. Please accept my apologies for the oversight. There is still time for dissent if you have strong objections to this new group. -- I have received several items of mail in favor of the group and there have been a few posts in the net of support for the group. There is one minor complaint that it doesn't really belong in talk.politics, but all other commentators have mentioned that they believe it is appropriate to place it in talk.politics. Unless there is massive correspondence between now and the 1st, I will press to a Call For Votes starting around the 4th and extending through the 31st of March. To recap: talk.politics.aids is being proposed as an appropriate place for the discussion of the political fallout and affects of AIDS. The moderators of sci.med.aids have decided that it is not appropriate there and the various other locations it has appeared in have been less than enthusiastic about its presence. The group will be unmoderated and have no official archives. I will be the vote taker and will have a special account set up for the votes. -- G.
